2.5.6 Optimizing the system for networked use
TalkSwitch has been designed to operate optimally when in a networked state. Here are a few items that have been designed for better network use:
Configuration Settings:
All units are ‘cloned’ with identical settings. In the event that a unit has ‘disappeared’ off the network (adapter unplugged, LAN connection disconnected, LAN failure etc.), the system can still handle the calls, since it retains the configuration settings of the ‘missing’ unit. In the event an extension or voice mailbox cannot be reached, the caller will hear the following system prompt: “The extension you are trying to reach is currently unavailable, please try again later.”
Outgoing Line Hunt Groups
By default, when 2 or more units are on a LAN, the system tries placing calls out on the same TalkSwitch unit the call originates from. This avoids using a line across the LAN on another unit, which helps to minimize the LAN traffic and optimizes the opportunity for all inbound calls to connect across the LAN if required.
Auto Attendants
There are a total of 9 Auto Attendants that are shared by all units on the LAN. When an Auto Attendant is recorded on any unit, it is then automatically copied to all other units on the LAN. This design minimizes LAN traffic and also provides functionality
Voicemail
All Local Extension and Remote Extension Voicemail data is stored on the unit where the extensions normally reside. For example, all greetings, directory names and voicemail messages for extensions
